Oregon Legislature Proposes Grant County Boundary Bill
A bill by Senator Laycock to fix and redefine Grant county boundaries along the Blue Mountains aims to settle disputes with Umatilla land gains of about 15 sections. The measure, Senate Bill No. 3, sets a new boundary line and declares an emergency to preserve public peace and prevent double assessments amid disputed jurisdictions. A road convention in Albany reports plans for improved highways with speakers Latimer McStock, and highway commissioners from Massachusetts and Connecticut.
